The Paalmist takes pains to des-
cribe as Forgettess of Cod those
whoin perhaps' you .or I would be
last to 'include as auch. God is re-
presented as speaking, and He de-
clares ; "Thou littlest instruction (or
correction, arL it is in the maeginal
reading), and castest ltly words be-
hind thee. When thou sawest a, thief,,
thou consentedst with him, and bast
been partaker with adulterers. Thou
givest thy mouth to evil, and thy
tongue frameth deeit. Thou sittest
and speakest against thy brother;
thoti slenderest thine OWX1 1110ther'f)
SOn. . . • Thou thoughtest that I
was altogether such a one as thy -
elf." As We examine carefully and
critically this 'portrayal we find
that the poaitively wicked and 'bad
are not mantioncid. The Psalmist
did not go fishing around in cessa
pools or sin for his specimens, he did
not trot off to the corrupt heathen
nations about to Ihulahis nian., who
had forgotten God. He found him
right near at band, and•among those
who perhaps stood highest in. the
community. He was the alma who
recognized the authority of the law;
who took a pride and satisfaction in
his moral rectitude and his clean. cit-
izenship; who held his head high and
was ready to preach moral standards
unto others. The Psalmist speaks
of his going so far as to 'declare
God's statutes and to take God's
covenant in his raouth. That is he
was not irreligious. He.recognized
Cod and His law. And yet he is
charged with hatiug instruction and
with casting God's .‘voeds -behind
him. This I take it means that he
was heady and high-minded, that he
had a vain. self-esteem Which made
him lintel -iambic. And the charge of
caating God's words behind him
would imply that he gave them a
subordinate place in his life and put
hie own. judgements and .thoughts
before those of God. More than
iatellcctualinn and higher
criticism were barriers' that prevent-
ed God's words having due weight

on to warn of the impending danger.
Listen, ye Forgetters of God, "lest
I tear you in pieces and there be none
to deliver." Here is the danger 5ignal.
Here is the sign post written,by the
linger of God telling you that just
ahead of the pathway whieh you are
pursuing in careless forgetfulness of
God there -are judgment and punish-
ment. Cod's mercy and patience
must not be counted for weak-
ness. `"Phe Lent is not slack
concerping . His promise, as some
count slackness; hut is long-suffer-
ing to you -ward, not wishing that
any should perish, but that all
should cmaie to repentance."- There
are those who doubt God, who do
not believe that the judgments
which He has pronounced against sin
will be fulfilled. Jeans encountered
such skepticism and referring back
to Noah declared, that the people of
that day had manifested the same
reckless disregard of Cod's warnings,
"and as were the days of, Noah; so
shall be the coining of the, Son of
man. For as in -Ulnae days which
were before the flood they were eat-
ing and drinking, marrying and giv-
ing in marriage, until the day that
Noah entered into the aN, and they
knew not until the flood came, ." and
took them all away; so shall be the
coining of the Son of man." And
Peter, having declared that God is
not slack concerning the fulfillment
of every promise and every ijudg-
ment, goes on -to say that "the day
of the Lord will come as a thief,"
He holds up before you, as we
have tried to show you, the certain
awful judgments which will fall upon
you and tear you in pieces if you
do not hear and heed; and on the
other hand He shows you what bless-
ing will be yours
IF 'YOU TURN TO REM.
In dealing with God, (and the soul
must deal with Him), it is either a
case of judgment or blessing. Bless-
ing He wants to give; judgment Ile
must give if you reject the offer.- of
mercy. He holds before the Forget-
ters of God the picture of the man
who was yielded thinaself to Him.
"Whose oiTereth the sacrifice of
thanksgiving glorifieth Me; and to
him that orclereth his way aright
will I shew the salvation of God."
The great sacrifice for sin has been
made. Jesus Christ the righteous
One has suffered in place of guilty
and lost man. God pleads with
you to thankfully accept Eriin as a
Saviour. God can be glorified and
honored in no greater way than fon
you to accepi His gift to the world.
Think you that the sacrifice of
thanksgiving means some great
thing you can do for God; some ser-
vice you can perform for Hini, some
goodness you can manifest in your
life? The only sacrifice you can
make -that will be acceptable to Cod
in the sacrifice of your will that will
give -Christ the possession of your
heart. The only thanksgiving which
will reach the ear of God and be
pleasing to Him is the thanksgiving
that has as its inspiration and
theme 'the crucified and risen Load.
Cod's promise is as sure as His
judgment. Ile says that He will
show His salvation to the man who
orclereth his way aright. In the days
of the Roman power, when the Cae-
sar a ruled. the 'world, it is. said that
all roads led to 'Rome. Sure it is
that all roads that God calls right
lead to Christ and salvation. He
who walketh over the road- of re-
pentance and faith will be shown
the glorious salvation of God in
the soul appears before God, it meat

Sold may turn from Cod itt thie life,
but it cannot escape Ilitu in the
next. If it will not listen here; it
inuat do so in the hereafter. Lieten,
ye who would forget God: "The
Mighty Ono, a od, Jh�vab, ha th
spoken." His message Is to you,
Listen, oh, preeioue soul! "Now cone
shier this, ye that forget God, lest
I tear you itt pieces, and there be

saerifice of thanksgiving' glorifieth

LEPROSY NOT DUE TO, FISH.
1^
Dr. Turner Tells of His Observa-
tions South Africa.
Leprosy must now be added to the
other scourges which afflict South
Africa. Until recently the extent
to which, ,this diseaee WaS prevalent
in South Africa was little • known.
The feet that it existed in the TranS-
vcial was practically quite unknown,
yet Dr. Turner, the 'health officer
of the Transvaal„ reports that where-
as there were 109 cases in hs charge
in1895. there are now over -200• Dr.
Turner adds the remarkable fact
that no one knows how many lepers
there are in tae Transvaal. He says
that a medical officer who had been,
in charge of the lepers and had taken
much interest in the matter asserted
that there were .at least 3,000 in
1900.
The disease is defying the most
heroic efforts at its extermination in
Cape Colon, while it is also spread-
ing in Basutoland and elsewhere.
The worst afflicted are the Hotten-
tots; the Eaffirs, with the exception
of the Europeans, being the least
affected.
Prof. Jonathan Hatchinson's
theory that eating fish, especially
cured, is the chief cativo of the dis-
ease has been fully set forth. His
arguMents and statistics are cogent,
but hitherto have found little sup-
port. Dr. Turner, as the result of
ruort careful investigation, differs
absolutely from Dr. Hutchinson.
Official returns show that 70 per
cent, of the total amount of fish en-
tering the Transvaal goes by Joh-
annesburg. Nearly all of this is
eaten by whites, but until December
there was not a single European in
the Johannesburg leper hospital.
Then a man who was born in Europe
was admitted, Ire was a member
of a large family all of whom are
living in the Transvaal. None of
the others is a leper. In Dr. Tur-
ner's opinion, his disease Was clearly
the result of contagion, as he habi-
tually- associated with a leper.
Of Dr. Turner's 210 patients, 14
per centhad eaten fish, only 17 per
Cent. of which wile cured fish. Among
the white lepers 95 per cent. had
eaten fish, 45 per cent. of which was
cured Eska A.mong the colored pa-
tients, who made up four-fifths of
the total, only; 30 per cent, ever
tasted fish, and only 10 had eaten
cured fish.
Dr. Turner is convinced that con-
tagion' is the most 'usual means of
the spread of leprosy. He treated a
few came in which it was possible
to assert that its origin was heredi-
tary, but practically none in NfihiCh
eontagion could be exclud,ed and
several in which contagion was the
sole explanationf He believes it
will eventually be proved that some
vermin is the cause of the infection,.

New Application of Phonograph
and Lighted GaS:
There wilt-bemusic in the air in a
sense never dreamed of by Ariel 11
the new flame sound discovery
shown to the scientific world at the
eon.versazione of the Royal Society
at Burlington House, London, by
Mr. T. C. Porter, can. be carried to
its logical conclusion.
Of cam se, being acientific. Mr. Por-
ter uses' a very serious title. Ile
calls his invention "A Method of
Mechanically -Reinforcing, Sounds,"
and he describes it 'thus :—
An ordinary phonograph with the
reproducer is used as the source of
the sounds. In this instrunient the
roughness of the record makes a ma
vibrate, and these ' vibrations are
conimunieated mechanically to a thin.
disc of glass or mica, which in turn
transmits thorn to the air on the
side of the 'disc remote from the
rod; the aerial disturbances are then
conducted by a tube usually. to ,
trumpet, but in. this experiment the
reinforcement of the sounds is ob-
tained by .the combustion of coal
gas and air. The mixed gases are
led over the disc of the reproducer
and conveyed by tubing to two con-
vergeat jets and then ignited.
In a small black box at the side
was hidden a, very faint phonograph,
placed in the Same part of the build-
ing as an auxetophone, which, uader
the -guidance of Mr. C. A. Parsons,
magnified the singing of an Italian
°parade artist, taking hold of the
voice as it came from the phono-
graph, and multiplying its loadness
by about eight.

admonishing them in. such words as
